Happy Birthday featuring Art Impressions Hats Off Miss Set

 Hello AI Fans!

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you had a wonderful weekend! As you can see, I took a totally different approach to the Stars and Stripes Challenge that is going on right now. I decided not to go the patriotic red, white, and blue. I love to celebrate the 4th of July like other Americans, but this time I wanted to approach the challenge in a different way. So I chose a striped paper from the beautiful assortment of papers in #5873 Mini Birthday Journal Paper Pack and then grabbed a star balloon from another set, and used 5404 Miss Set from the Hats Off line. I ADORE that hat!!!  I stamped the images and colored them with Copic markers which are listed below. 




Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit today! Until next time - stay crafty!!

Stay fabulous and carry a big tumbler featuring brand new Art Impressions!!

 Hello AI Fans!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend and celebrated all the wonderful Fathers in your life! I have a card today that features the adorable brand new set #5928 Stay Hydrated! How fabulous is she??!! I love that there are a lot of different skins you can use for your tumbler, and she is just amazing! LOVE her!! Because I used the paw print skin on the tumbler, I decided she needed a little fur baby beside her. So I grabbed the Dog House Cubbies and used the little pooch from that set. I made a simple little scene by making a sky using a cloud stencil and some Distress Oxide ink. Grabbed a piece of polka dotted paper to create the grass with a die from my stash, and then just plopped her on top! Voila! It really was a pretty quick card to make. The images are stamped onto Copic friendly paper using the Misti and then colored with markers which are listed below.

Seas the Day featuring Art Impressions

 Hello AI Fans! 

I hope you enjoyed your weekend and it was full of fabulous weather! For those of you lucky enough to either live close enough to, or were able to visit the beach, I'm totally jealous! LOL! I had a fun time coloring up this colorful car from #5455 Birthday Buggy Set from the line of Rides at Art Impressions. And instead of using all the Birthday stamps that comes with it, I chose to grab #5509 Beach Accessories set. I might have given away my age by the way I colored it. LOL! Who remembers all the cute bugs around the 60's and 70's with flowers painted on them? I couldn't resist, so I grabbed #5739 as it had the perfect sized flowers for the car door. For the sentiment, I used #5399 Gull Friend Set. I started by stamping all the fun images onto Copic friendly paper and then colored them with Copic markers which are listed below. I created a beach scene by just grabbing some dies from my stash.
